Laboratory of Advanced Biopharmaceuticals (This laboratory is run in a joint program by NIBIOHN and Kyoto University.)

1. Members

2. Background and objectives

Diversity in drug modalities is important as the application of pharmaceuticals is broadened. This laboratory contributes to development of new technologies in new biopharmaceutical modalities including engineered antibodies and their drug conjugates.

3. Research

We design functions of biparatopic antibodies by comprehensive epitope selection (Figure). New technologies are also developed to go beyond conventional antibody drugs by utilizing the technologies of protein engineering and synthetic chemistry.

4. Link

Our research activity is also conducted in Laboratory of Biopharmaceutical Chemistry, Graduate School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Kyoto University.
